Development site for Bronx Banter Blog's upcoming look and feelFri, 18 Aug 2017 02:15:35 +0000hourly1https://wordpress.org/?v=4.8.1By: Alex Belthhttp://www.bronxbanterblog.com/2013/05/30/splat-4/#comment-305794

But mostly, that’s because blogging about baseball is often boring to me and there are so many sites that do it well. I enjoy the Banter as much now as ever before but mostly because it’s an eclectic site with less focus on one team or one sport. But I still watch the Yanks every night.

It just seemed to me that there is less and less baseball content here—besides game summaries, general discussions of the team, upcoming opponents, etc seem to have completely disappeared. I sensed, incorrectly it seems, a general malaise regarding the organization. I guess I am projecting my own increasing loss of interest. I too have less and less time these days, and what spare time I have is less and less devoted to baseball…or rather, I should say less and less is devoted to the Yankees, who have as an organization sucked a lot of joy out of the game for me.

Thu, 30 May 2013 13:55:47 +0000http://www.bronxbanterblog.com/?p=103321#comment-305782Talk about rooting for laundry, this line-up is mind-boggling. I just can’t get too up or down about anything … My personal investment in the team is pretty small. I mean, when Gardner is one of the two most “core” players in the lineup, it’s weird.

And this is not a bugaboo of mine or anything but that lineup sure was full of white guys … Conspiracy?!

Thu, 30 May 2013 13:54:41 +0000http://www.bronxbanterblog.com/?p=103321#comment-305781No, not at all. I just don’t have the time to always write about them. I am really enjoying the team but have so many other writing interests that game recaps, which are generally dull to write, fall to the side. Plus, in this case, there wasn’t much to write about. LOL
